Unless I messed up I do not think there is an rpmfusion nvidia driver for F23.
Is it known when a version of the driver that works with the bew Xorg server
ABI version 20 may be made available?

On Fedora Users someone reported that they had successfully installing the
old Xorg on F23 to get nvidia working.
For the record these are the commands that I think are the minimum to do this
until rpmfusion and NVidia catch up:
# dnf remove xorg-x11-drv-nouveau
# dnf downgrade xorg-x11-server-Xorg --releasever 22 —allowerasing
# dnf install akmod-nvidia --releasever 22
# systemctl enable akmods
# reboot
I did clean out all the files in /var/cache/akmods and /var/cache/akmods/nvidia
to be sure that akmods would build the rpm. But I’m not sure if I need to do that.
